Hi Steve,got them done in Widnes by these

Only £35 a wheel.The finish isnt as good as you would accept on your bobywork but at that price its good enough compared to how they were.They do bead blast them to get all the crap off aswell.

What's not to like? Unless you have actually had them painted with marmite? That would probably receive some disapproval.

well you are right about them being a marmite thing

as you all know im not a fan of black wheels, and in my opinion they would look about one billion times better if they were silver.

but if you like them, enjoy!

Just a shade or two too dark for me but I'm in the black alloy hating camp frown

A gun metal or titanium colour would look nice on those alloys.

With the later style of alloy the wheels look smaller in that colour...which on a coupe is perfectly OK smile

Look nice thumb

Same here kinda... while mine are probably almost as dark as yours, maybe 2 tints lighter and glossy:

click to enlarge

Maybe put some tyre spray on them like i did, i think that this looks good on cars with dark wheels! Otherwise the tyres look kind of brown-ish against the colour of the wheels.


(ps. i have to get rid of those Abarth caps...)
